JavaOne Schedule is out – create your own with TimeFinder

Today I realized that the schedule for the JavaOne 2009 is out (4 days starting from June 2nd). So I grabbed the data from this table and created a new menu entry in my TimeFinder application to import all the talks and get a feeling of how the overall timetable would look. If you build the latest version from source you can create your own schedule for JavaOne – contact me if you need assistance.

If I would be the host I would let the people pre-enrol them before the conference starts. So that the schedule could be optimized with TimeFinder. Then a lot more people could attend what they like.

I do not attend the conference (although I would like) but this could be my schedule (a lot of conflicts, uhm):

Another cool thing about TimeFinder is that you can see easily the timetable of a lot persons or rooms. E.g. in the JavaOne example you can see which other talks one speaker has – e.g. Sean Brydon from Sun Microsystems, Inc. has the following timetable:

Please revert to revision 490 or check this revision out again.
Then it compiled on my system with ‘mvn clean install’ under branches/milestonepre1/

Then you can start de.timefinder.planner.TimeFinderPlanner (planner package) to test the planner or start de.timefinder.core.io.ImportJavaOne (core package). Adjust the sessions_catalog.j1 file within this class to your needs.
